i actually leave GPS on. i use SETCPU to always be 768min, 998max at all times except under 30% (256/576). using adw. kill apps once in a while. i wake up at 730am and get home from work at 1pm and it will still have ~20% battery and that's with probably 50-100 texting situations and some email, some browsing. =) But using youtube destroys bettery life. lol

Online in the Market, very great ;)

A question: what is difference between versions???

Edit: ok, i had read info on the your site :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Blueman101:
are the ads during the video? If so I think this app is more then worth $10, if not then i'll just get the Free version?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Autinhyeu:
No ads during play video, ads show at bar menu :) it's very smooth...

many thanks for the author!!!

------------------
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SBS_:
Pretty non-obtrusive ads for us in countries without a paid market, good call by developers.

Been using the leaked alpha up until now, but replaced it with this version :)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] aureliusmaximus:
Could somebody explain to me why this app needs permission to read phone state and identity (heading: phone calls).

Seems odd...but curious!
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JupiterDroid:
The beta was cool as fook, but now the audio lags then catches up. Joke app now...

Reverted to mplayer as i don't have avi's anyway, and has brightness memory, cool:)

So it knows when you are getting a call so it can pause the video.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] willverduzco:
Does anyone know if the paid version has the R logo, or is that removed, along with ads, when you pay the $10?

I used the alpha without the R logo until now, but this looks better (better scaling mainly), though the R is a deal-breaker for me.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] nxt:
App has been updated to fix lag issues.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] NuKeM4n:
The paid version does not have the red R logo
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] AmaruPhoenix:
I don't understand why they can't just have a Paid Version on the market....

*LIGHT BULB*

They want to take full profit from the sale instead of letting Google handle the transaction..

I for one want to support them since I've been using their Beta version

HOWEVER!!!!!... Since it is only registered to the Phone IMEI... *since they are trying to avoid Google Tariffs..... Switching Phones will require you to purchase it again....

I FOR ONE WILL NOT BUY IT OUT OF PRINCIPLE.... What I pay for should be a global one time payment... knowing myself. I will get the *Nexus Two* and follow Google assuming they don't switch Manufacturers.. *COUGH* MOTOROLA SUCKS
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
OK...

this is crap, or I am stupid

1. i have a few *.m4v videos that show up in the lists of stock player and mVideoPlayer, but don't show up in RockPlayer (although RockPlayer can play them, when i un-check "show media files only" (so that EVEN RockPlayer can see them... and click them in RockPlayer...)

2. when i am in a file explorer, and click on *.m4v the pop up window only offers choice of stock player and mVideoPlayer

3. The option "use as system player" doesn't seem to have an effect.

4. Rockplayer does not offer a consolidated list of videos on its home GUI?????????? I have to click through my file system to find all my videos individually????

5. paypal payment method.... no way to refund???????

... why again is this better than mVideoPlayer???
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JupiterDroid:
Audio lag is still evident....

Straight after scrolling the time bar!

JD
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
I have uninstalled the software and have no intention to use it ever again.

Just as I expected my refund request to PayPal was declined by the seller.

In his response to my refund request he didn't even comment on any of my complaints, just provided a simple "i am sorry to hear it" and an explanation of what "use RockPlayer as system player" means (= using the phone's hardware acceleration (not sure whether it's true or not).

Exactly what posters above are worried about: if you are not satisfied, you have no way to refund and for every new phone you would have to acquire a new license because the license is hooked to the phone's ID.

I strongly advise against using the PayPal scheme

i have escalated to PayPal, because I have already uninstalled and since I am not using the software would like to have a full refund.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] JupiterDroid:
Paypal will refund you mate im sure,

I think its very underhanded of this company (if its a company and just not a small time dev) to not refund you...

I would not enter into any transactions outside of Google Market as your totally protected.

I would also tell everyone to avoid this app like the plague, and install Mvideo player, its about a thousand times better....

If your bothered about AVI playback, just convert, simples;)

JD
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
absolutely. i am back to mVideoPlayer.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] zok-star:
not bad at all!! Just tried an xvid .avi file and played it fine! audio lag is there but after a seconds the audio does come back
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
does it recognize *.avi file as media file? or do you have to disable "show only media files" to see it?

does the audio lag come back when you scroll forward or backward?

mmh... does it show all video media files at start up page, or do we still have to manually sift through our file structure to find the videos individually?
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] zok-star:
I just put in the root of the SDCARD 2 avi's that have been encoded using xvid. 1 sample of a DVDSCR and another a full length movie.. Both files showed up fine and played excellent! Didnt have to look at other options.

Yes audio lag both forward and back, but comes back soon after

what ROM are you running? Maybe update? Im on stock non root
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
i am on CM6 latest nightly. mVideoPlayer has no video lag

i am just trying to say for a media player it should be the minimum to have it look up media files and sort them (such as the stock music player does), and show them in start-up screen.

e.g. i am using iSyncr, to synchronize both music and movies between my PC iTunes and Nexus One Music app (works perfect and flawlessly!). it puts the music and movies in /iSyncr and sub-folders (sorted according to artists, or whatever you like).

using mVideoPlayer (or any other video player) it can look up the video files and show them.

with RockPlayer, i have to go to each individual sub-folder to find the videos manually. That is just stupid.

Furthermore, it claims it can play oh so many videos, but it doesn't show for instance *.m4v files as media files, while they show up in mVideoPlayer instantly.

Furthermore, fast forward or backward in RockPlayer is clunky, while mVideoPlayer has long perfected that (try it out).

yes i am flaming and i won't stop until i have been fully refunded.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] :
I love the auto brightness feature on Mvideo as well;)
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] zok-star:
i tried mvideoplayer.. seems great and small in size, but didnt play any of the video's i saved to my sdcard.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
Yes it only plays codecs android officially supports

That's why I was excited about RockPlayer at first

But it sucks
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SBS_:
"Sucks" is quite harsh in my opinion. It plays most files you throw at it (not HD) quite excellent. I used it to watch several episodes of a series and a movie while on a train ride and had no problems what so ever.

The ad-supported version is also free so can't really fault the program when it does its job quite well.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] Thomaslje:
still got sound lagg

I still got the sound lagg the video talks the the audio come's a while after
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] pikipirs:
You do realise that Google offers a possibility for paid apps only to developers in a hand full of contries? Not every developer in the world can upload a paid application to the Market. Are such developers not entitled to having profits from apps they develop? (On the flip side, ever wondered why there are so many free apps on the market?)

Supported countries for downloading as well as for uploading paid apps: http://www.google.com/support/androidmarket/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138294

Have you tried to contact the developer stating your issues and asking him/her/them to fix them? Most of these issues are fixable. The more people contact and ask for fixes, the more likely fixes are going to happen. Especially if you paid for the app (why did you pay for the app anyway if you didn't like it?).

I'm sure the developer will generate a new key for you if you ever switch your phone and ask him nicely. But he doesn't have to refund as you had a chance to try before you buy.
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] shmigao:
As expected dev and paypal declined refund even I don't use the app anymore.

App, dev, paypal suck

Better beware when paying for apps via paypal. No buyer protection.

I am going to avoid paypal now

Sucks
[Nexus One Themes and Apps] SBS_:
Why should anyone refund your purchase? You got what you paid for and you even had the opportunity to try the ad-supported version first, which is exactly the same as the paid one.

Google Market has a 24-hour refund period, Paypal doesn't. You knew all this on beforehand (or should have known) and still you act all angry and righteous? Ridiculous.

edit:

I see you're saying that you won't use it, but developers/others can't just take your word for it. Everyone could just say they weren't happy with the app/product and they would get it for free. It's exactly the same as getting a new TV and demanding a refund by stating that you won't use it and that you will throw it in the trash. Just won't happen in real life.
[Touch GSM General] dushyantspatel:
Since Last two months not received any new development, what happen?
[Touch GSM General] vasujahagirdar:
yes i too worried.waiting for new/improved builds
[Touch GSM General] captainstu72:
Can always learn to make your own rom and contribute :P This is something I have looked at in the past and there are plenty of kitchens out there.

Personally. I wouldn't be surprised if the Devs have moved on to better phones, afterall the elf is now filed under legacy, and is aging.
[Touch GSM General] saurabh88:
yes one reason is most chefs (me too) moved to higher device.

second is no new build is coming since >2weeks..

and htc and microsoft have already moved to windows 6.1<6.5<6.5.5<7.0<last android

they are doing well with that and our only hope is xdadevelopers who keep the windows alive.

still then wait and watch
[Touch GSM General] madnish30:
There is noting much that can be added to elf, except new builds and since m$ is not releasing any new builds worthy of cooking, no new ROM upgrades.

As a member said, why not cook yourself if can't wait for the chef to release :) thats always nice.

Moving this to general as not ROM development.
[General Topics] glenndv:
The famous Tower of Hanoi game with brand new freatures, now FREE!

Towers of Glennoi is a remake of the wellknown "Towers of Hanoi".

The object of Towers of Glennoi is to move the tower of blocks from one side of the screen to the other. Sounds simple, right? Well, it's not, because you have to move the blocks one at a time and can only put blocks in ascending order of size.

As a result, Towers of Glennoi becomes a question of shuffling the blocks between the different poles in order to be able to stack them in order on the correct pole.

After downloading and installing the game, you can do free registration on the Towers of Glennoi homepage.

Due to the fact I can not add links this is quite a sad topic :-)

I hope somebody else wants to make this topic attractive!
[HD2 General] stoolzo:
As is usual for XDA there is a lot of great work going on but in my opinion this work is beingde graded by poorly thoughout threads, questions, instuctions and general communication.

Looking through the current andriod threads they are just a mess of information with missing and dead links and very little to help newbies get andriod up and running.

As we are forging ahead now with Andriod I think its time for a specific Andriod section with its own stickies and rom/file repository.

I actually think the current sections are abit misleading anyway, what is the difference between q/a and general? - too much overlap here which tend to fragment information further. The sections should be as follow imo:

1. General discussion

2. Technical help

3. Android ROM development

4. Windows ROM Development

6. Software / personalisation
[HD2 General] se1988:
I kinda agree. the Q&A section is to similar to general discussion.
[HD2 General] johnboatcat:
I agree

Those would be better thread titles as they are more descriptive of the content of each.

Thanks in Advance

You could say that the device didnt want to turn on after ROM update ;)

Make a warranty claim at a HTC service centre. My service center replaced my motherboard for free knowing I had hacked it. Just speak nice to them, but don't tell them you hacked it at first, let them find out for themselves if they can, and then tell them with a sad face you didn't know that wasn't allowed.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] slyb5:
I am doing similar work (for other purpose). you dun need a 329$ device to jtag your HD2.

Get a "bus pirate" from any eShop, QMAT (or not). Bus pirate includes a firmware interpreting jtag commands...

HD2 jtag pinouts are available somewhere on xda in the general question section.

Just...be freaking carefull when you open your HD2, the screen/touch pad and connectors are super easy to damage. good luck

[Galaxy S I9000 General] sangadang:
So whilst using my Galaxy S I've been realizing that it would be nice to see a docking station for it. I vaguely remember a docking station being advertised on the Galaxy S teaser site, and a few tv ads.. But I haven't heard anything about it since then :/ So would you buy one? It'd be really nice to see one, I find it better to have it attached to something rather than lay on the table at night :/
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
i'll only buy one that has sync and charge option, with an extra battery charger
[Galaxy S I9000 General] ickyboo:
It'd be interesting how it will sync/charge it as the usb port is ontop of the phone, I feel that it was a design mistake from Samsung. The extra batt charger option is easy enough to do

*EDIT*

Ok I take it back, I want the dock after I saw a photo of it here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=727178

Heres another one but has no mention of sync : http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/...ype=acc_detail&subsubtype=chargers&returnurl=

It would be awsome to have Sync and a app that turns your SGS into a USB Monitor like found on my PSP and WINMO so I can keep email/cpu temp/whatever on my desk.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] carmatic:
not sure if this is the right place to post this, but i would like to say a few things about the ADW which came with the x10 root

this is all to do with the apps screen, it doesnt swipe left or right to switch between pages if you touched an app icon, unlike the normal app screen which overrides the icon select when it detects a swipe/drag move... so the only place you could swipe to switch pages is at the bottom corners since there are no app icons there

the other problem is that the app screen wont fit all the icons properly in landscape mode, the lowest row is off the bottom of the screen... and it is also impossible to swipe left be because the only free spaces on the screen is on the right
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Vin87:
Unselect the 'Horizontal Drawer' in ADWsettings>Drawer. This gives you the normal Android style app drawer with vertical scrolling, which works without the flaws you mentioned. It also works way smoother than the stock SE drawer.

I can't comment on this as I don't use the Horizontal 'Galaxy S' style.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Mano1982:
I use Zeam Home launcher & i'm very happy with it :)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Ungruntled:
AS Vin87 said, just find the option to turn the "drawer" back to vertical scroll. It works MUCH better, and unlike the stock drawer, it remembers your position so you don't have to keep scrolling down to find the last app you used.

Since I switched to vertical scrolling drawer in ADW, it's become my favourite launcher.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] citsym:
Thanks for the tip. I liked the idea of horizontal scrolling, but as the OP mentioned it keeps mistriggering.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] cricka15:
hey guys quick question on home replacement apps, do you remove the original “home" from ignore list in task killers, surely having adw and home open is unnecessary? I have an un rooted phone, does root remove stock se home launcher?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] j4mm3r:
It does no harm

The original home does no harm. You can let it be on the kill list of any app killer but it'll keep launching back. If you are really picky, then root your phone and get rid of Launcher.apk.

The root does no removal or cleanup, the devs realized and avoided doing anything like that because all of a sudden "n00b" users started asking them back.

Take your time, understand how your phone behaves... App killers are really un-necessary on Android unless you have a really misbehaving application that hogs resources. Root is useless if you don't know what to do with it.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] cricka15:
thanks for reply.

I'd been thinking along those lines, only have taskiller installed to see what's running, the memory management makes sense to me, what's the point of having it if its not being used!

not going to get into rooting until custom roms are possible as there aren't any features that I need.

back to playing with the (many!) settings in adw.
